An almost strictly nocturnal breed, Ciriax Lindwyrms are especially attuned to the moons’ cycles. They spend nights patrolling the edges of their territory, aggressively fending off intruders while they feast on their prey. After two or three nights of feeding, often around the time of at least one full moon, Ciriax Lindwyrms retreat to the recesses of their cave or underground homes. These dragons make it particularly difficult to travel on nights that are well-lit by moonlight, often to an unsuspecting adventurer’s dismay.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Joss and Nin, unlike Cleo and Ellen, get a real kick out of getting dragons to mistake them. Like most dual-headed dragons in Recila's Cave, they adhere to the accessory identification method; in their case, one wears a matching set of gold bands around his horns, and the other has a matching band hanging loosely on their neck. The problem is, they like to change who wears what, and since it's considered rude to ask which head is which, dragons regularly call Joss by Nin's name, and Nin by Joss' name. It's pretty annoying, to be honest, but they refuse to stop, and it's not like anyone can force them to.
